Intentional Negotiation and Filling of Accessory Canals: A Case Series With Three‐Dimensional Segmentation and Volumetric Healing Assessment
This case series presents successful intentional instrumentation and obturation of ACs, supported by CBCT-based planning and follow-up. Although limited by the lack of a control group, the findings highlight the potential role of CBCT imaging and segmentation in identifying and accessing complex anatomy. Further prospective studies are needed to determine the impact of this approach on long-term clinical outcomes.
